KBRA Withdraws One Rating and Affirms All Other Ratings for CFCRE 2016-C4
27 Mar 2026 | New York
KBRA withdraws one rating and affirms all other outstanding ratings for CFCRE 2016-C4. The conduit transaction has been reduced to 15 loans and a balance of $269.1 million from 49 loans and $840.0 million at securitization. The rating actions are based on current C/E levels, which are significantly higher than securitization; our identification of nine loans (72.5% of the pool balance) as KBRA Loans of Concern (K-LOCs); our estimated probability of default-adjusted losses of $10.2 million (which if realized would only impact the non-rated certificates) and corresponding principal recoveries; and current interest shortfalls affecting the non-rated certificates.
KBRA withdraws its AAA (sf) rating of Class A-4 following the reduction of the principal balance of the rated security to zero as reflected in the transaction’s March 2026 remittance report.
As of the current review, five (47.7%) of the nine K-LOCs are specially serviced, including two loans (7.3%) that recently transferred in March 2026 and are not yet reflected in monthly reporting. Of the K-LOCs, five (18.7%) have estimated losses. The K-LOCs are depicted in the table below.
